opkg update error in RC1 about openmptcprouter

[Ysurac]

List are updated. You installed kmod-natsemi yourself ?

[patimages]

No I did not install it and it is not installed.
OK, better to provide the whole story :

• went to real time graphs -> connections -> got an error "usr/lib/lua/luci/dispatcher.lua:427: /etc/config/luci seems to be currupt, unable to find section "main"
• fixed following online advice (https://techoverflow.net/2021/05/04/how-i-fixed-openwrt-luci-error-etc-config-luci-seems-to-be-corrupt-unable-to-find-section-main/): cp /rom/etc/config/rpcd /etc/config/rpcd
• wished to install "dmidecode" from software so I updated the list and got the error mentionned previously.
• cannot install as I keep on getting "Package kmod-natsemi version 5.4.238-1 has no valid architecture, ignoring. Unknown package 'dmidecode'." And dozens of " * parse_from_stream_nomalloc: Missing new line character at end of file!"

[Ysurac]

dmidecode is already installed on x86/x86_64. There is also hwinfo installed by default and give some nice results.

[patimages]

LOL : did not expect/try this as the software tool reports this as "available for installation" ! But you are, indeed, right !
Thanks !
Am I the only one who got all these errors though ? The NUC I use is brand new ...

[Ysurac]

For now, kernel modules packages can give errors because it's not yet a real release and they can be compiled for another image compilation.
For the luci problem, you shouldn't have this. Each time I had this problem was due to a corrupted image/disk or imported backup.

[patimages]

Understood, no problem.
Would you advise me to reinstall OMR clean and refill the proper info from scratch rather than using a backup of the settings that has been incremented during years of use (I am one of your "fidèles" ;-D) ?

[Ysurac]

Sometimes it's better to restart from clean install, mostly due to some configuration customization changes.
But if it's working, keep it for now and wait for the 0.60 final release.

[patimages]

Fair point : it does a fantastic job for now so I ll wait for the final version to reinstall a clean version. Merci encore !

[patimages]

Hi,

FYI : brand new install of the router (openmptcprouter v0.60rc1-5.4 r0+16862-170d9 - VPS : 1029-test), clean, settings entered manually. Going to "status ->realtime graphs->connections" leads to error "/usr/lib/lua/luci/dispatcher.lua:427: /etc/config/luci seems to be corrupt, unable to find section 'main'" on all pages from 192.168.100.1.

Highly reproducible on two different NUC.

only solution : service rpcd restart

[Ysurac]

This happen just after boot ? after being logged a long time ? What do you have in your browser developper tools in the console tab ?

[patimages]

No : anytime I go to "connections". Here is the console log.

[Ysurac]

I'm not able to reproduce the issue.
How many active connections do you have in Status->Overview ?

[patimages]

Shoot ... It occurred on 2 different NUC (an old and a brand new one). I could give you access remotely if you wish.
Here is the requested info :

[Ysurac]

18337 active connections. I think it's the problem: too many data to display on this page.

[patimages]

Where does this come from ??? I have 20 connected items ... Did not happen in the 0.59 version (same setup).

[Ysurac]

It's a lot of active connections. No change have been made on this part.
This seems to be a timeout. You can try to increase some in Services->uHTTPd, advanced settings tab.

[patimages]

This is indeed a lot for a couple of laptops, few tablets and some IOTs (21 connected objects, half being closed at this time)... The load is at 0.1 ... Any way for me to check what is going on ? Am I under attack ;-D ?
Thanks a lot for your time and help !

[Ysurac]

You can check with conntrack -L for example that all connection are legit.

[patimages]

It indicates 492 lines most of these related to my orbi router ... kind of :
17 146 src=192.168.100.108 dst=192.168.100.1 sport=47300 dport=53 packets=3 bytes=192 src=192.168.100.1 dst=192.168.100.108 sport=53 dport=47300 packets=3 bytes=289 [ASSURED] mark=0 use=1
Could this explain the 20k connexions ?

[patimages]

A complete reset of my orbi router fixed the issue. A big big thanks for helping me out while the issue was clearly not OMR !!!
